It was under instruction from 1866 to 1889, collected many unearthed cultural relics during every period with high value all over the Greece.
Now, the museum has more than 50 rooms including the hall and exhibition room, and has collected almost 20 thousand cultural relics. Most of the cultural relics reflect the part of Greek mythology. In every sense it is a complete collection of ancient relics museum. The most famous golden masks, vessels and decorations are exhibited in Mycenae relic display area that locates on the mid-way of antehall. Sculptures are exhibited on both sides of the middle way, and you can also find all kinds of weapons there. Further north still is bronze exhibition area.

The modeling of potterys and the pattern on bottles present the features of Greek art which is graceful and nicety. The museum has two floors which contain 50 showing rooms, filled with so many relics of every period that it is common to take half a day to finish visiting. Following the entrance, Mycenae display room comes into sight, which collects "Mask of Agam-emnon".

Other showrooms exhibit some red and black bottles and jars, which covered with geometrical pattern and used by ancient Greeks in daily life.
In most rooms of museum there is no air-condition. Therefore we suggest that you'd better visit the museum in early morning, for the cool surroundings and avoiding crowdes. The Marks of many Cultural relics inside are not very clear, many of them even have no English Commentary, so you'd better buy a English Commentary note before entering to avoid the regret like that Entering the Golden Hill, came with no Harvest.
